sweex router

Einstein · 2008-01-06 16:11:36

howdy, have my broadband working through a sweex lw055 router via DHCP Does ANYONE know how to change the lease timer on one of these routers?! It's default is 86400 seconds or 24hrs. Any idea how i can change this to never? cos it takes ages to renew. I've trawled the sweex site, they don't even have any firmwaRE upgrades…

The router software only has a DHCP on or off check box.

starting to annoy me a bit.

cheers

Why don't you just give your computer a fixed i.p. address rather than set it to dhcp ? Or am I missing something here ?
